Just in time for T-Mobile's G1 launch, social media site Imeem announced the launch of a new streaming music app for Android. The app is available now as a free download from the Android Market.

Imeem for Android marks the site's first foray into the mobile space. The app lets users stream music, discover recommendations, and purchase music via the Amazon MP3 app. It also integrates with its browser-based counterpart, with listening habits on one end reflecting results on the other.

"Our vision is to let people enjoy Imeem anywhere on the Web and beyond," said Imeem CEO Dalton Caldwell of the app. "Today, we're taking an important step towards that goal by delivering one of our community's most requested features: the ability to enjoy imeem on the go. We're looking forward to introducing more features and mobile applications in the coming months."
